Vegetable Sagu

An authentic Karnataka side dish served with Poori, Set dosa and also tastes very good with Chapathi. I often make this  for my mother in law as a side dish to Chapathi since it is made without Ginger Garlic paste, which she doesn't like. A tasty side dish with very mild spiciness which elders mostly prefer...
